If you do have to have surgery, the good news is that you'll feel better as soon as you wake up.

Lots of O2 ~am to your friend and his Dad, Steph.
Kitty ~ma to Javi and Batcat. I’m so glad you are taking care of Javier, Calli.
Coddled eggs are my favorite but I haven’t had them in years because I need to fix my coddlers. Maybe over Xmas?
I’m considering leaning into my Jewish side and getting takeout for Xmas. We don’t have great Chinese around here, so maybe Vietnamese and Thai? Will have to see what is open.
Happy Solstice!
Bring back the light.
I'm sorry the prognosis isn't better, sj.

Agree!
sj, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm glad you got some answer, though.
I need to fix my coddlers
I just used ramekins in a pot of shallow water. Do you have a more complicated method than that?
I want turkey for Christmas because I could not have it for Thanksgiving. But there still seems to be no affordable small turkey on Instacart. Or just a turkey breast. But I do have to do an Instacart before Christmas and almost nothing sounds good.
Are there Krogers near you, Sophia? The one here has fresh roasted turkey breasts in their deli section around the holidays, and packaged boneless ready-to-roast breasts in their meat section. In the past as a last resort, I've had a deli make a 1" thick slice of roast turkey and cooked that a bit more as if it were a ham steak.
oh lady at work, no you cannot require an employee to tell her supervisor if she got tested for COVID and the results if it was not as a result of direction from our Health Department. If she is positive or exposed and lying, then address that. (apparently woman is "not feeling well" and telling some employees she "was exposed" and telling others "she might have been exposed").
The source of my pain is a bulging disc in my neck, and if the weakness in my right arm doesn’t improve in a month, I’ll probably have to have surgery.
This is what I've been dealing with for a few months now. The pain was debilitating at the beginning, and thankfully now is under control. They gave me gabapentin to begin with which has been effective, and this past week I had a cortical steroid injection into the spinal space where the nerve root is being pinched by a herniated disc. I've got the same thing with some weakness in my right arm. Let's hope we can both beat this without back surgery.
